The 3rd Annual Homed Sleepout – 7th March

Homed Newcastle’s Sleepout in aid of YMCA is back for the third year running on the 7th March!

The sleepout is a 12 hour event on the grass opposite the Student’s Union; volunteers sleep outside for the night to help raise awareness and funds for Newcastle’s branch of the YMCA . There will be food, warm drinks, a gazebo and other activities to keep us warm through the night. All we ask is that you bring warm clothes and a sleeping bag.

Everyone is welcome. You don’t need to have volunteered with Homed before to sleepout. Whether you come on your own or with friends, the atmosphere is really friendly every year and a chance to meet a lot of new people. There will be activities throughout the evening and it is always a good laugh. Even if you are not keen on sleeping out, come along for an hour in the evening to support us in the cold!

Want to join in? We are each giving ourselves the aim of raising £20 so try to send the fundraising link to a few relatives or share it on facebook but please don’t worry if you don’t think you can achieve this as you can help collect money on the night.

Funds are raised through online sponsorship (the link will be posted shortly), sponsorship forms (contact us if you need one) and collection buckets, which we will have on the night and will be around the Medical School the week before the event.

Just log in to your Facebook account and then follow this link to our Facebook event for more details!
